Last Thursday, Kathi^2, Peng and Georg were at Neustift to set up the advection equipment for the final campaign this year. Here you can find a video which compresses a few hours of work into 25 s.

Today we received notice that Katharina (Gerdel) will be supported during the next 12 months by a scholarship of the University of Innsbruck for her PhD project – congratulations!
After having transported equipment up north, Georg and Anouk helped Florian to set up the equipment at the SMEAR station Järvselja for the next four weeks. Below some impressions:

Yesterday Kathi and Peng went to Fendt to support UAV-based thermal imaging by Claire Brenner (BOKU, Vienna) with ground-validation EcoBot measurements.
